I called this a "MIDNIGHT MIRACLE" because I started this yesterday afternoon for a Birthday Gift TODAY!

Having done this process before & knowing how it was going to turn out I was able to complete all the paint & artwork in just a few hours. Now I'm waiting for the Top-Coat Varnish to dry for Transport this Afternoon!

I debated about putting the extra time & effort in the polka-dots underneath thinking no one would see them anyway ...until I took this photo from underneath looking UP!

This was an Old Childhood desk. It now has a new life to be presented today for a Special Surprise Birthday Gift!!A pretty surprise when drawers are opened with Dotted sides! My signature distressed Stripe & Polka-Dot Legs! Metallic Gold Trims the edge of the Table Top!

Decoupaged Drawer Fronts with Vintage Look Paper. I also went through my Hardware-Morgue & found 2 Matching Antique Pulls that looked great on this piece.

A Light Breeze outside will Hopefully Dry the Varnish Quicker Today!

I found PICMONKEY.COM and am able to create neat collages of my work to post on Facebook and other places I feature my items to sell. It's easy to use & helps organize many shots & angles of an item in ONE pic rather than having to download several.

About Me

I like to find Vintage, well crafted furniture pieces & transform them with current finishes. Sometimes Paint is needed although I do refinish a nice wood top if I find it to be in good condition. I speak to all decor styles with my traditional finishes, along with my edgy, youthful & sophisticated colors & designs. I do faux painting in homes along with decorating & now have a shop in Tomball for the one-of-a-kind things I Restore, Make & Find.
